| Very informative Richard,sometimes we use these products so often that we tend to take things for granted,above all by passing on such information to our newcomers stops them falling into these traps,product knowledge is a vey important part of modelling something which the retailers need to take onboard when selling items to the public,one shop that will remain nameless insists on selling balsa cement for plastic models,and diesel fuel for glo engines !! just think of the flustrations when a raw beginner starts to use the totally wrong items,and then we have the danger aspect with gloplugs lighting up ether based fuels,it does not bear thinking about.
The water impervious adhesives are relatively thin on the ground,as you have rightly pointed out,after all the work put into a model,the last thing we need is for it to fall to bits ! more basics here please Richard,lets all go back to modelling school again.
